You could try fragrant, hardy stuff like lavender - there are different varieties and it's drought and wind tolerant. Wildflowers might grow in big pots, although they grow fairly tall, but they're drought and wind tolerant (you can get mixes for a variety of environments, including annual mixes). The seed is available online. The bamboo screen is a great idea to create a microenvironment. You may have good success with flowers in the sheltered area.
